Add to basketNo Binding. Condition: Very Good. The earliest printed map dedicated solely to the West Riding. Early seventeenth century. Engraving with contemporary hand-colouring on laid paper. Sheet size: 34.5 cm x 28.4 cm. A finely engraved and highly decorative early map of the West Riding of Yorkshire derived from the groundbreaking coun…ty surveys of Christopher Saxton, widely regarded as the father of English cartography. The map was engraved by the Scottish engraver William Hole and forms part of the important early seventeenth-century tradition of reinterpreting Saxton's foundational surveys for a new generation of British atlases and geographical publications. Edition not evident. Blank verso. Impression shows signs of wear to the plate but does not have the added '48' plate number to the left hand corner. Date: c.1610-1637. A strong impression with contemporary or near-contemporary hand-colouring. Historic central fold as issued. General age toning, light surface wear, and minor handling marks consistent with age. The engraving remains sharp and well defined, with clear, legible place names and attractive colour. A well-preserved example of an important early Yorkshire county map.

Add to basketOriginal uncoloured engraved map of Monmouthshire trimmed to neatline and backed onto 18th century laid paper. Map dimensions 27.5 x 34 cm, overall backing-sheet size 32 x 40 cm. A bit toned mainly to bottom right corner, generally very good. An early decorative map of Monmouthshire engraved by William Hole based on the earlier…maps by Elizabethan cartographer Christopher Saxton first published in the 1607 edition of William Camden's Britannia.* This example is from the first English edition of Camden's Britannia published in 1610, without any text on the verso. Embellished with royal coat of arms, compass dividers, compass rose, sea galleon, and decorative cartouche. *Britannia, first published in 1586, was one of the most popular and influential books of the period. The work of the Elizabethan antiquarian, William Camden (1551-1623), it was a detailed historical and topographical description of Great Britain. Its patriotic sentiments, in particular, both appealed to and generated the growing sense of nationalism that was coursing through late Tudor / early Stuart society. Between 1607 and 1637, county maps engraved by William Kip and William Hole, and based largely on Saxton's surveys, were added. (Skelton, 6).

Add to basketNo binding. Condition: Good. 255 x 310 mm., with early outline and wash colour, small rust mark in upper margin, otherwise in good condition. This is from an edition of William Camden's 'Britannia' in 1610, first published without maps in 1586. It was the last to be published in his lifetime and first illustrated with county map…s in 1607. That edition in Latin has printed text on the verso of the maps. This 1610 edition was the first with English text, but the maps are issued without text on the back making them more desirable. Camden (1551-1623) was an antiquary and historian. An academic by profession he would become the headmaster of Westminster School in 1593. He spent much of his time travelling and collecting material for his highly respected 'Britannia' which had been contemplated since at least 1589. This map of Caernarvonshire in north Wales is engraved by William Hole. An example of the second state with the addition of a plate number lower left. Chubb (1927) 18; Evans (1964) MCC no. 13 p. 6; Shirley (2004) T.Camd 1e; Skelton (1970) 6; Taylor (1968) pp. 9- 13.
